Sure thing Syl. Although with me being from SC and you from AL, I suspect they are pretty similiar, so I will share something from my ancient homeland of Israel.
Shakshuka - Israeli Spicy Tomato Stew
1 lb meat - I prefer lamb, but have used chicken/basil/sun-dried tomato sausage, grilled flank steak and goat
Some serrano peppers and pimento peppers (jalapeno and bell will do in a pinch, though)
Cumin, curry and paprika to taste (it doesn't actually traditionally have curry, but I happen to like it and added some, so there!)
1 med onion
couple cloves of garlic
spinach
1 leek
1 large fresh tomato
1 can stewed tomatoes
1 zucchini
Feta cheese
some eggs
So.....
Dice tomato and start it simmering with can of tomatoes. Finely chop pepper, dice onion and start sautee together. Throw in crushed garlic with a few minutes to go on the sautee. Add in spices to sautee.
Dice zucchini, chop leek and add to tomatoes, add in all the stuff you just sauteed, add in spinach. Sautee meat of choice and add to stew. let it simmer together for about 20 or 30 minutes. crack eggs and gently put them on top and let them poach in stew for 5 minutes.
When done, ladle into bowl, sprinkle some feta over it and serve.

Here's my favourite recipe, this was the first I ever cooked, and it's so tasty I fell in love with it Not sure how region specific it is (it's missing our cuisine's main ingredient, paprika), and I will try to translate it, so bear with me...
Drunk chicken
Ingredients for 4 persons:
- 8 pcs. of chicken drumsticks (or upper legs, or mixed by preference)
- 4 slices of bacon (I am not sure about this, I think bacon here is slightly different than in US...)
- salt
- 3-4 tablespoons of oil
- 1-2 slices of smoked fat bacon
- 7 oz (2 dl) dry white wine
- 7 oz (2 dl) sour cream
Put salt on drumsticks, roll them each in half slice of bacon (the bacon I usually buy are quite thin, feel free to use a full slice). Grease a pan with oil, put the meat in, and put smoked fat bacon pieces between the meat. Pour the wine under the meat. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, put it in 350 F (180 C) hot oven for about one hour. Take off the foil, and let it cook for about 15-20 min until it's properly cooked. Mix the sour cream in the sauce and let it in the oven for about 5-10 more minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes.
